It's been a sad week in the world of fashion with the news that one of the founders of the great Italian fashion house, Missoni, has died. Ottavio Missoni died recently at the age of 92 - he co-founded the fashion house with his wife Rosita in 1953.

So after a sunny bank holiday at MizEllie we are feeling rather summery and this means that we are of course planning our key summer wardrobes and if you want to update your wardrobe one way could be with chic neck scarves.

Silk scarves in particular are a great addition to a lady’s wardrobe, especially during travel. Wearing the same outfit along with a different scarf gives the ensemble a totally different look, so the traveler does not have to pack as many outfits.

There are many products on the market today that have attached themselves to a social cause, from bottles of water, footwear, pants to condoms, but we can now add one more item to that list – Silk Shirts.
